6061  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] GOLD - First 100% Liquid Stablecoin Backed by Gold on: January 01, 2020, 06:10:39 AM
As mentioned, the price follows the Gold price but how they convince the people about the full reserves? Is there any documentation or paperwork to check the reliability of this project? What is the difference between the other gold-backed altcoins and the GOLD coin? Thanks for answering my questions!

The main difference is in your first sentence line, the other projects are just like your regular cryptocurrency but this project is a stablecoin meaning the price of Gold token is totally dependant on the price of real Gold. Therefore if real good was to achieve an increase in price, It'll reflect on the gold token. The other projects you speak off, although they claim to be backed by gold, their prices is totally dependant on the trading activity of the community and their volatility nature is just like that of your regular cryptocurrency. That's why you can see their token price raising from cents to dollar values then fall back down when the hype surrounding the project is over or investors loses interest.

Irrespective of Gold token been a stablecoin it also has other advantage that the average stablecoin don't, it can be used as an investment vehicle since it's price is corresponding to that of the real gold meaning an increase in Gold automatically gives you profit in gold stablecoin. Concerning the credibility of the project, you can verify that on their website, audits page;
Quote from: author=link https://gold.storage/en/audits
Each GOLD token is 100% backed by physical gold stored in secure vault. Amount of physical gold stored can be verified at any time. We guarantee GOLD token's liquidity. Unlimited amount of GOLD can be purchased/redeemed at our website instantly 24/7.

Given in the second half of the season they will compete at home to Manchester City. I think this is the game that will provide the biggest challenge this season for Liverpool.

Which challenge? Isn't it Manchester city homes teams that never in their life you'll think can defeat them are winning games easily. In my opinion, the only club that might have a chance to cancel Liverpool's invincible season would be United. Not because they're better but when it comes to big games, the united players are always on their A game and so far they're the only club in the epl to have taken points from liverpool (their last game ended in a draw, although united deserve a win but Liverpool fighting spirit helped them avoid that lost).

On Brighton vs Chelsea game, well it's another away game so obviously it should be an easy win for the boys, although they need score more goals I'm tired of the one goal scoreline differences. I miss the early days of 3plus goals per away games. We need get back to scoring more goals and winning games back to back since united is picking up some momentum recently not forgetting we're just 18 games away to the end of the season.

6065  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Future of BNB? on: December 30, 2019, 05:45:55 PM
BNB was one of the most profitable exchange tokens before a while but now the value has dropped by over 50% as it's trailing at a mere $14 as of now and the same was above $35 in the month of June. If this trend continues then the BNB will lose its potential and investors. BNB was one of my favorite tokens which have crashed terribly, what do you think will be the future of this token?

Binance coin althrough it's currently trading at -50% is still one of the most profitable coins of 2019 as it started the year trading at below what's currently trading at (either $2 - $5). Before now, I have alway advocated that Binance is just been hyped and it'll backfire when the hype dies down like how every altcoin hyped in 2017 suffed in 2018. Binance coin was never worth what it was trading at ~$40 as the technology of the coin couldn't match the price. Investors were forced to buy BNB in order to partake in the IEO using the Binance Launchpad.

Manipulation of price and FOMO was just the factor causing price of the coin to moon and not a genuine growth. I don't think BNB has much future although it's still one of the coins to keep an eye on since Binance still has a say in the altcoin industry as they're currently the most used exchange in the industry. Exchange tokens aren't worth any utility outside their exchange so as far Binance exchange still dominate the space the chances of BNB succeeding is present.

At the beginning of last year 2018 I started a similar thread and asked others to write out goals since it has been scientifically proven that when goals are written out, it increases your chances of achieving those goals. These were the goals I wrote and adjusted them as time went on;

2018 wasn't that bad for me but it wasn't my best either so I hope for better days ahead. I'm just an average dude,
trying to espace the rat race by earning my way to financial freedom through cryptocurrency.

MY 2019 GOALS
  • To achieve Full member Senior member Hero member rank
  • To increasing my crypto portfolio to $100k
  • To earn aleast 150 merits 250 merits 500 merits in 2019
  • To increase my asset portfolio to 90% bitcoin
  • To continue eating right and get a more fit body

Hopping for the best in 2019.

By his grace plus my dedication i was able to achieve all my goal except just 1 which was the second goal so I'll be moving that to 2020 although the goal involving my asset portfolio has reduce due to my frequent cashing out bitcoin to fiats for my needs in hard times.

In 2020 I'll continue to pursue my financial freedom, through investing wisely and my signature privilege has also contributed massively as I reinvest 80-90% of my monthly earning. So hopefully that dream of mine will become a reality in 2020. On the forum, I hope to impact more users through my posts, as that's a core reason of been productive on the forum, the rest are secondary.

Happy New year in advance.

The way this Arsenal vs Chelsea match is progressing, I think a draw is possible or Arsenal to win. I really is not seeing a win for Chelsea. Why in the earth I gone with Chelsea 🤪

Don't give up on the process, Lampard is buidling something special. His technical change was on point as immediately jorginho was introduced in the first half, Chelsea started dictating the game that's the reason arsenal couldn't get a second goal. Thankfully Abraham got his top team goal today in a brilliant way thanks to Williams assist.

You went with the right choice as the game ended 2:1 in favor of Chelsea with goals from jorginho (this time it wasn't a penalty kick 😁 but a tap in) and the second goal came from Abraham just 5 mins apart. The way i celebrated the second goal, I'm sure i have never celebrated a goal in that manner before, I was jumping all over the place with joy shouting at the top of my voice. It was awesome. Off to get some refreshments before watching the Liverpool game although we already know it's a win but it might not be that easy.
6068  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BitcoinNews.com's English Premier League Football Pool Discussion Thread on: December 29, 2019, 09:59:50 AM

Yea my point exactly, the league this season is becoming too boring, I remember when everyone was on their feet last season as the competition between Liverpool and Manchester city was intense and made the league very attractive. Manchester city this season has been disappointing.Their rival "united" is picking up some momentum recently as they're now winning winnable games easily and are currently in the top 5, something I didn't think could happen, Rashford has been on fire. I remember some weeks back Abraham was 6 goals ahead of Rashford with him scoring 9 goals and Rashford had just 3 but currently Rashford has 12 goals were Abraham still struggling to score against top teams with 11 goals.

And guess what we're playing against a top team "Arsenal" which likely he might not get a goal but hoping he breaks that cause since we broke the cause of not winning games against top teams in the Tottenham game. Probably Abraham can get himself on the scoreboard. My prediction is very optimistic so I'm going with a 3:1 scoreline in favour of Chelsea
6069  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: December 29, 2019, 09:34:00 AM
Anyway, Arsenal vs Chelsea is going to be interesting. Let's see if Arteta did change the way Arsenal play and whether Lampard can bring back the winning form of Chelsea again.

I'm more confident the boys (Chelsea team players) are going to get something out of this match thean I was against Tottenham few days back. The issue isn't that Chelsea aren't playing well that's why they're losing their recent matches against the smaller teams but due to the brilliant game plan by the managers to setup defensively and counter attack Chelsea is paying off since our defense isn't that solid.

Arsenal on the other hand won't set up defensively even if they try, they don't have the squad to do so, they're not known for having a strong defend so obviously that won't caused us any problem scoring goals and as it's an away matches the boys (Chelsea) will put on an awesome performance probably earning us all 3points.
6070  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Token and cryptocurrency coin are same or different? on: December 28, 2019, 11:39:18 PM
Let's go into some discussion, firstly nice explanation from @The-Devil as that's the easiest and simplest explanation possible but then can a token also have its own blockchain? If no then what is Binance coin utility purpose in the community, isn't it a utility token. If it's a token and also operates on its own native blockchain does that definition by @The-Devil actually cover what cryptocurrency tokens are? So the question here is, can a token also operates it's own native blockchain since from other advance definition;
Tokens are used to represent digital assets that are fungible and tradeable, including everything from commodities to voting rights...
the answer from me would probably be yes, since I see EOS as a token, BNB as a token and they operate their respective native blockchain although majority rely on existing blockchain to operate.

Also is there anything called a utility coin, understandable some coin have more function than just been a currency/store of value like Ether been the fuel that powers the ethereum blockchain etc,

Before now, most of those times were used to make threads, and replies but recently, i have seen myself reading through more and more threads irrespective of me been interested in contributing to the discussion at hand or not.

Apart from the knowledge, Joy and satisfaction I get from engaging with other forum users and discussion on the forum, my signature privilege pays me $300 monthly while my real life job barely pays me ~$100 monthly (that's including my allowance and bonuses) just to show you how helpful the forum has been to me. I don't see the forum vanishing anything soon but if it does, life continues as I'll always find a way to assist myself with other legitimate side hustle especially through monetizing my passions.

Congratulation champ @hugeblack, well deserve achievement. Lucky you that, you don't have to wait as long as other would irrespective of getting the required merit for the legendary rank.

I still don't know what's the benefit of having legendary rank?

For starters, you get a half dark blue star that's only assigned to users with that rank on your profile. You get some special privileges like higher pay in regards to signature or bounty participation and get a sense of fulfilment that's if your deserve has always been to rank up to the highest rank possible which is legendary. All I'm trying to say is, it feels good to complete a task and with achieving the legendary status, you can boldly say you just did that 😁.

Please can we just give Liverpool the trophy and move on to the next season to watch Liverpool defend the title with pride. Without much stress Liverpool would probably defend their champions league title as well they'll win the premier league with an invincibility performance. Where I would probably get mad is when neither mane or Salah would be handed the BEST award and ballon d'or respectively.

I knew Manchester city will drop points against wolves but wasn't confident enough to predict a loss so instead I went with a draw in the pool and it just cost me my 3 point. Congratulations to all the Liverpool fans in advance when and where will the party be at?🎆 It's now just a matter of time as you guys are already proud champions of England. What a year 2020 would be for you guys.

Wow what a wonderful year 2019 has been, i registered on the forum in 2017 and was somehow inactive and when I'm active I wasn't as productive as I'm currently. Late 2018 I encountered my savior so my story on this forum will never be complete without mentioning the almighty LoyceV.

Here's my list;
  • LoyceV, this was the user that turned me from a net negative forum user to who I'm today, he help me get a fresh start and encourage me into contributing positively to the forom
  • suchmoon, he was the user that single handedly ranked me up to full member with been my biggest merit fans, his meriting gave me another reason to improve on myself since the best meriter was keeping an eye on me.
  • Hhampuz, the best campaign manager I have ever worked with, such a great guy. After working with him few days after I turned full member, there hasn't been an open slot that I'm interested in that haven't been mine considering I was quick and qualified for the position. His timing was so perfect that he pays me back them, first thing in the morning (just imagine waking up to a credit alert) that was how he made me feel on every payday morning such a wonderful guy.
  • LFC_Bitcoin, he was the first user that trusted my judgement but now over 9+ users now trust my feedbacks, he included me on his custom trust list, made me a DT member for months without me not knowing until months later which then encourage me to continue hunting down the untrustworthy users on the forum, right now we encounter ourselves regularly on the gambling board and each time, his contributions are always interesting to interact with.
  • My merit fans, i can't mention them all but they're the reason I'm here today (rank-wise). Some assisted me then left me along the way; Jet cash (he hate bold so won't put his name in bold lol), DdmrDdmr, The Pharmacist, Welsh etc i miss your meriting lol although thanks for helping me when i needed you guys the most.
  • tk808, shout out to this guy, he was the reason why I picked interest in the alternative subboard since the board was lacking merit especially as his contributions weren't getting highlighted then I got motivated, applied for source and got appointed. He's such an asset to that particular board.
  • Special shout out to; GOLD_official (current campaign manager for finding value in my posts and always accepting me each time I reapply to promote project. Fillippone, Heisenberg_Hunter & cabalism13, (for been my pals & motivators), DireWolfM14 (1st positive trust giver, thanks for trusting me (A Nigerian) with the loans, Upgrade00 (for always patronizing my currency exchange business), philipma1957 & TMAN (for always coming through for me and thank you for everyone that have assisted me one way or the other on the forum in 2019, thank you merit sources, moderators, spam & scam busters and Theymos/Satoshi.

So what stops you from gaming in the festive period if you have been gambling from the start of the year? For my specialty which is the premier league, the festive period is always an interest period to gamble since the games comes in their numbers to present a winning opportunities for gamblers who'll he willing to risk it as games becomes very unpredictable. Gambling is like a culture and shouldn't be attached to any emotions or specific period of time. Supposedly you're thinking gambling won't make you any profit now but that of the new year would then you must be joking.

The festive period is one of best times to gamble since it's a spending period and the money would be easily available for you to win since almost everyone will be engaging in gambling one way or the other either for fun or to raise extra cash.

Best football team in the world - Prove me wrong.

Jurgen has built a fucking unstoppable juggernaut.

Mehn I can't argue with this statement and any football follower that haven't realized this yet is not truely a football lover. I always referred to Liverpool this season as the best team in not just England but Europe as a whole. I was thinking they can't achieve the invincible that maybe Leicester City might trouble them but liverpool proved once again their dominance. I can easily say Liverpool might end the season as invincible I means can anyone point to a club that cab defeat them? If Liverpool was to loose any game until the end of the season I'll be because of their own doing and not that the opponents were best.

Ok, Liverpool closed the Premier League for this season... What guys do you will watch till the end?

If I can recall clearly at the 62nd or so minutes I stood up from my chair to go get some rest since Liverpool press was just to much for Leicester to handle and concluded it was Liverpool's match to win. Woke up this morning with a 4:0 scorelines and was very surprised, nobody saw this coming. This is Liverpool way of sending a clear message to Manchester City that, "whatever they can accomplish, they too can do it better". Liverpool are currently unbeaten since the city defeat back 34 or 35 games back.

PS: anyone observed the Trent celebration?

You might think that the Mods are not working but if you take out the time to check the number of banned accounts in this forum, you would notice that they are numbering in the thousands.

Actually that won't give you an accurate statistics since not all moderators have the power to assign ban to account most especially those above newbie and also spamming isn't actually the main cause of bans although it can also contribute like when a newbie profile is nuke. The data that can give you some accurate stats is the numbers of deleted topics/posts which can be found here; Modlog

We are all moderators here in our own way and when you notice any user who seems to be a chronic spammer and you don't wanna report them to a moderator, you could simply leave them a feedback and warn bounty managers to steer away from them because they might bring negative attention to their campaigns.

That wasn't the intention behind the trust system and can be categories as an abuse/misuse of the system. Beside we're highly discourage to avoid leaving feedback for posting habits or issue that doesn't involve a users trustworthiness. I know some individuals still do this but that isn't right and beside we have the "report to moderator" button to handle this spam issue properly. Managers should learn to review each applicants posting behavior before accepting them into their campaign. They are been paid for that, we don't have to do their job for them.
6080  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Coins or Utility Tokens? on: December 26, 2019, 07:36:39 AM
If we want the adoption of cryptocurrency to increase globally then we need more tokenization of the current companies assets on the blockchain. The bitcoin maximist will hate this since all they're interested in, is seeing bitcoin succeed and dominating not minding if it's at the cost of other project. That's why they hated the fact ethereum gave rise to easy tokenization of projects. Not trying to say I'm against bitcoin succeeding or dominating but the industry has grown beyond just bitcoin so when the issue of adoption pumps up it should involve the entire industry and not just bitcoin. So I'll go with utility tokens although not those shitcoins duplicating already existing utility but introducing something new and having their planned whitepaper to bring their ideology into implementation.

Coins will be introduced with their native blockchain which means introducing new blockchain which might be stressful to maintain so instead they should leverage on already existing blockchain and developing society impacting project and not just disguise scam. The bitcoin/ethereum blockchain still has a lot to offer plus many other existing blockchain. We might not need more at the moment instead we need more global acceptance (adoption) and utility tokens might just do the trick.
